The good work of ISIS

The good work of ISIS
No, seriously... I couldn't help but laugh a bit when I stumbled upon this wiki a moment ago:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institut...ic_Society

Quote:Institute for the Secularisation of Islamic Society

The Institute for the Secularisation of Islamic Society (ISIS) is an organization of writers that promotes the ideas of secularism, democracy and human rights within Islamic society. It is part of the Center for Inquiry.

Founded in 1998 by former Muslims, the best known being Ibn Warraq, the group aims to combat theologically driven fanaticism, violence and terrorism. The organization does not promote any belief system or religious dogma but rather it subscribes to the rule of secular law, freedom of speech and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Seems like the other ISIS might at some point kill everyone in that ISIS and display their severed heads on pikes.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Secularization of Islamic Society? Might as well promote the mixing of oil and water.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Horatio Sanz was on Comedy Bang Bang as a Saudi inventor. He invented a device that creates an informational hologram of your sister called the I-Sis. Haha It turned out to be a ploy to recruit for ISIS.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Uh-oh.  The NSA will fire a cruise missile in their door by mistake.  They aren't always so careful.

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke

When you say the "good work" of this ISIS, what has it done?
